Circus Rose
I am running off this morning to catch a plane to San Francisco where I will spend all next week wandering around the city with my new kids, taking pictures of unsuspecting people, cars, buildings, etc., and then painting them. I will post when I can, and probably mostly on Facebook. I will do a recap here when I get back. : )

Sometimes I am inspired by another artist's painting, try to do something "like" it, and end up nowhere even close! I really liked yesterday's flower painting by Carolee Clark. Specifically I liked the mosaic effect. So today I shot for more of a mosaic-y feel. I'm not sure I quite got there, but I do like the result. Along with less guilt (yesterday's post) I am also shooting for more experimentation and risk. If I look back at the things I've done in the past that ended up being pretty cool, they all came from stepping out of my comfort zone and taking risks. I vow to be more daring! I've gotten way too comfortable!

Carol Marine's Painting a Day - "Little Scissors, Little Flowers"

CAROL MARINE'S PAINTING A DAY     4/11/13
"Little Scissors, Little Flowers" - 6x6in. -  click to bid


Often I will go to the grocery store and buy a bunch of props to use, and then feel guilty if I don't paint them for as long as they stay fresh, even if I get sick of them before then. Lately I have tried to ignore that guilt and be a bit more spontaneous with what I paint. I saw these flowers on a walk, picked them, and painted them right away. No thinking about it. No glancing at the apples still in a bowl in my studio.

This is another one from a photo I took in San Francisco recently. It was actually the very first picture I took, on the first day, right down the street from our hotel, in the morning. The sun was just coming up over on the right, bouncing off some of the buildings on the left, making everything else glow. So cool.

I am finally getting caught up with everything since returning from Germany, and sleep is almost back to normal. We only woke up at 6 this morning, vs. 3, 4 or 5 on previous mornings. Jet lag definitely gets tougher as I get older. But I had fun doing this egg in between some last minute tax calculations.

Hello! We are home from Germany and recuperating slowly (jet lag is a drag!). You can see a few watercolor sketches I did while away, on my Facebook page. I really enjoyed this new medium, and will continue to play with it. Meanwhile, here is my first oil painting since returning.
